Spirit Airlines, new interview format

[Caddaddy]

LAS job fair. Long app the Monday after.
Phone interview about 8 days later. Did the online tests that same morning, as soon as she sent them to me.

108 questions on the cog. Only felt like 4 or 5 were guesses.
Psych test (who knows? Not really grade-able?)

Interviewed on 8/6.
97% on 50 question ATP written
Felt like the face to face was great. 2 on 1: FLL CP and Instructor. (Since I was a Sim instructor at my last job, easy to chat with him)

Got the TBNT email two days later.
Canned email of course, no feedback what I was lacking, even after a polite request for some.

Oh well, my commute would've been rough to ACY.

About 6500TT 4200TPIC (Fractional mostly) Brief 121 CRJ time (Comair in 05)
IOE Capt/Sim Instructor. Three internal letters of rec.

Did you do any kind of "Interview Prep" to prepare for the NK interview?

Studied my ATP prep. Used online site info like aviation interviews.com, and got advice from 3 recent new hires there that had interviewed in the last 9 months.

But no, no formal interview prep. Lesson learned.

It's official. As of last night, four 2011 DOH pilots are headed to captain upgrade!

Im coming up on my two year hire date. Looks like 40 numbers away from the left seat. Lots of FO's are bypassing...100 plus.

That's fantastic movement! What are the likely bases for newhires again? How long before you could realistically bid another base?

It's so hit or miss. I did not have interview perp if any kind and got hired.

I know great guys who were turned away here then picked up by ual, jblu or airways

Aviation is a small community, I know who shot you down from Avantair. Remember, the guy who worked for you might be your boss at another location.

Any hiring updates? I can't even find a place on their website to apply/update apps.
